Post punk pioneers Wire have announced October tour dates in North America. The band will kick things off in Montreal on October 10th, with a routing that will see them on both coasts from New York to Los Angeles, wrapping up in Chicago on the 18th.

The band is supporting their 11th studio album (and 47th release overall) titled Object 47. The track "One Of Us" is available to dowload at the band's website.

They should just join forces for a Big Co-headlining tour and be done with it. The fans clearly demand it, and kids that smoke way-too-many cigarettes, wear black turtleneck shirts, yet enjoy the poppier side of their punk with a healthy dose of humor thrown in would be Stoked.
